This property can be attributed to an a proper wetting agent is used. This property can be attributed to an increase in the penetrating, spreading, and emulsifying powers of increase in the penetrating, spreading, and emulsifying powers of water due to factors such as a lowering of the surface tension. water due to factors such as a lowering of the surface tension.

F-500 is an Amphipathic molecule– Large molecule with a polar end and a non-polar end

with sufficient distance between so that each end acts independently

Polar end (hydrophilic - “loves water”)– Soluble, it dissolves in water

Non-polar end (hydrophobic - “fears/hates water”)– Acts like a heat seeking missile - seeks out molecules other than

water (such as hydrocarbon)
